[quote=Anonymous]Now that DS is 4, his struggle with language is really coming to a head. Today on the playground he was the default bad guy, which means he chases after the other kids attempting to join them, but he’s the slowest, has the poorest receptive and expressive language, and whenever he catches up and thinks he’s part of the group, they all run away again. He loves it-for now- thinks he’s part of a group and playing with friends who like him. He’d be crushed if he knew and understood they had made him the bad guy. It’s nothing for now but still hard today watch, and it’s only going to get worse. DS has no real friends. A lot of activities and playmates and buddies and birthday parties, but real friends? No. I’m so nervous and sad for him as I watch him fall behind his peers, despite huge progress.  He’s sweet and social and does not have one mean bone in his body. He just - talks funny, and doesn’t understand a lot of things. How do you deal with the sadness and supporting your child? [/quote]
